Abstract

Wine tannins are essential to the astringency and color stabilization of red wine through the formation of tannin conjugates. It is important to determine the concentration of tannins during wine aging and fermentation. The aim of this study was to establish a new method that allows for real-time analysis of tannin content in wine and eliminates inconvenient processes, such as calibrations and/ or enzyme reactions. The Folin-Ciocalteau spectrophotometry (FCS) was used a positive control and compared it with new microelectrode biosensor cyclic voltammetry (MBCV) method. The new approach was established that not only allows for real-time tannin detection but is also economical and does not require the use of a specific enzyme. The results are reproducible and provide a precise measurement of tannin content.
